Abstract

At present, it is clear that leadership roles are increasingly being held by women. For instance, in the field of education, numerous women occupy key positions, such as principals, deans, and even rectors. This trend aligns with the women's emancipation movement and the gender equality movement, which advocate for equal rights for women in various aspects of life. The purpose of this study is to explore the meaning and characteristics of leadership, including leadership styles and roles, principles and laws governing women's leadership, the impact of women's leadership in education, and the significance of women's leadership within Islam. Moreover, this research employs a qualitative methodology utilizing a library research approach. A library study is a type of research that relies on a variety of reading materials, such as books and journal articles, as references. This research highlights that women are no longer perceived as weak; they consistently demonstrate their strength above and beyond societal expectations, increasingly taking on prominent leadership roles. Furthermore, it posits that when a woman assumes a role such as a principal, office head, or class leader, especially within the educational sector, she should embody fairness, honesty, and responsibility in her leadership.

Abstract

Background: Conventional lectures often cause fragmented attention among vocational students. Objective: This study explored students' learning preferences and instructional adaptations in Islamic Religious Education (PAI) classrooms at SMK Negeri 3 Medan. Methods: A qualitative descriptive case study was conducted from February 27 to June 18 (AY 2025/2026). One experienced teacher and three eleventh-grade Pharmacy students were selected via purposive sampling. Data were gathered through 5× classroom observations, 4× semi-structured interviews (12–30 minutes), and lesson plan analysis, then analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana's interactive model with manual coding. Trustworthiness was ensured via triangulation, member checking, peer debriefing, and audit trails. Findings: Students preferred practical, hands-on activities and audiovisual media over fixed learning styles, contextually shaped by the procedural nature of Islamic rituals and vocational learning-by-doing habituation. Instructional adaptations, such as short moral videos and ability-based reading groups, effectively enhance student engagement and classroom focus. Conclusion: Creative adaptations temporarily boosted student interest but could not eliminate structural constraints like weak parental reinforcement at home. Implications: Instructors should flexibly blend practical, visual, auditory, and reflective activities within a single flow rather than labeling students into rigid categories.
